Hi,

thanks for the url regarding anti-virus and spamassassin ;-)
I tried to send an e-mail without amavis router to a non-existent user but it send me a bounce message :
"This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
     toto@???
Technical details of permanent failure:
PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 550 unknown user / l'utilisateur n'existe pas


I don't understand why ?
I won't use amavis router anymore, you're right, scanning e-mail in acl is better.

tks,
JPB
